Matt Rau
· Psalm 63:1-8 – God, you are my God; earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you; my flesh faints for you, as in a dry and weary land where there is no water. So I have looked upon you in the sanctuary, beholding your power and glory. Because your steadfast love is better than life, my lips will praise you. So I will bless you as long as I live; in your name I will lift up my hands. My soul will be satisfied as with fat and rich food, and my mouth will praise you with joyful lips, when I remember you upon my bed, and meditate on you in the watches of the night; for you have been my help, and in the shadow of your wings I will sing for joy. My soul clings to you; your right hand upholds me.
Matt loves that this passage draws attention to our true and deep inner longing for our Creator while giving recognition to the reality that the Lords steadfast love is the greatest thing we can cling to in this life, He is our strength and in Him alone is true satisfaction.Matt Rau

About Creekside Outreach & Missions
Our mission is to join God on His mission to reach and redeem this world from sin and brokenness. We do this through strategic partnerships with missionaries and mission organizations locally and worldwide, by training and equipping people to live as disciple-makers, and by offering dozens of opportunities for people to actively engage in God’s global mission.
Missions | REACH exists to help people obey Jesus' final instructions “ you will be my witnesses” (Acts 1:8) within the context of the Great Commission “go and make disciples” (Matthew 28:19-20) and within the confines of Jesus' return timetable “the gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world to all nations, and then the end will come” (Matthew 24:14). Creekside desires to train and equip people to live missionally and be disciple makers and to resource kingdom building until all nations, tribes, peoples and languages (Revelation 7:9) have been reached.
